Soldier Diaries

Soldier Diaries

Soldier Diaries are only found on soldier corpses within Dracula's castle. They're usually easy to reach and even easier to spot, as they're always a dead knight that glows yellow, as seen above.

Note that Soldier Diaries are not counted as "Secrets" on the in-game world map.

Diary #1

In Part 1.2, it's found immediately upon entering Dracula's castle the first time.

Diary #2

In Part 1.3, it's found at the base of the two waterfalls in the second waterfall room (the first waterfall room after the Stone Golem boss).

Diary #3

In Part 2.1, it's immediately to the left when entering the first room of the area.

Diary #4

In Part 2.1, after the cut scene with Euryale, turn around and look behind the statue of the rearing horse.

Diary #5

In Part 2.1, the soldier corpse is just in front of the first button in the room with the captured Chupacabra.

Diary #6

In Part 2.2, after your first fight with Harpies, climb the structure at the edge of the cliff, and the body will be at the top.

Diary #7

In Part 2.2, after the fight with the two Dungeon Jailers, activate the device in the next room to create curved stairs. At the bottom of those stairs is the body.

Diary #8

In Part 4.2, as soon as you exit the castle toward the bridge to engage the boss, turn right. The diary is around the corner.

Diary #9

In Part 5.1, after the cut scene with the boy in the castle, look for a small collapsed room in that same room as the boy. The room is on the wall in the direction the boy is facing, and the body is around the corner.

Diary #10

In Part 5.2, the body is in the lobby of the theater. You'll have to kill some knights before you can collect it. It's near the foot of the destroyed stairs.

Diary #11

In Part 5.2, once you're in the theater proper, go to the stage, then climb up the pillar on stage right. Drop into the box seats overlooking the theater. You'll find the body there near the barricade.

Diary #12

In Part 6.3, in the City of the Damned, head to the room where you fought your first Dungeon Jailer, which is now filled with Harpies. After you clear the room, you'll be able to activate a device on on side of the floor to open a new door. Immediately turn right in this door, and you'll find the corpse on the other side of the doorway.

Diary #13

In Part 6.3, after taking a map room to Berndard's Wing, the corpse will be to your left immediately after exiting the map room.

Diary #14

In Part 7.2, in the second “room” after the fight with the Riders of the Storm, turn left immediately after dropping down into the room proper. The body is leaning against a pillar in the corner of the room.

Diary #15

In Part 8.3, in Bernhard's Wing, in the room with two waterfalls (the room adjacent to the White Wolf Portal room), there is a gate halfway up the wall. On the upper level, walk clockwise until you get to the torn red carpet, then jump toward the gate below and switch to Mist Form in midair to mist through it.

Once you're behind the gate, follow the path to the end, then double jump to a handhold. Climb up, and the corpse will be there.

Diary #16

In Part 8.3, in the City of the Damned, go to the door that leads to Overlook Tower. (It's to the right of the elevator that, itself, is to the right of the Chupacabra shop door.) Double jump over the gap to the right of the Overlook Tower door.

Diary #17

In Part 8.3, in Overlook Tower, exit the map room and face left to find some handholds. Climb up, then bear right while continuing to climb. Defeat the enemies there, then double jump across to the wooden platform. Drop down the short distance to the next wooden platform, then look left. You'll see a tower across the gap. Double jump to that tower to find the body.

Diary #18

In Part 8.3, in Overlook Tower, return to the courtyard that served as the stealth section for Agreus. About halfway through it, look at the external wall. Check the screenshot for reference; you can expand the screenshot by clicking it, and you might be able to see where it is based on the mini-map.
